The baby’s sour smelling stools may be related to improper diet, or it may be related to pathological factors such as chronic pancreatitis.
1. Physiological factors: Because the baby’s gastrointestinal development is not perfect, if the parents usually do not pay attention to the feeding routine, may lead to the gastrointestinal tract to secrete too much gastric acid, affecting the health of the digestive tract, so the stool will have a sour smell.
2. Chronic pancreatitis: If the baby has chronic pancreatitis, with the further development of inflammation, it may also be accompanied by some internal and external secretion function damage, so there is a sour odor of the stool.
If you’ve got a baby with a sour odor, there may be other reasons, so we recommend that you go to the hospital in time for a relevant examination to determine the cause of the illness and then continue to treat the symptoms.
